10 mbps is basic LAN speed. That's broadband in my book.
If that's what you're paying for that's what you should be getting.

** List info, subscription management,
verizon offers speed for money. go to their website to see what you have. the

On the downlink. On the uplink the speed is typically 1/10 of that as
the providers have found yet another excuse for charging their
customers extra if they want symmetric service.

The new cable company coming into town are doing all their own stringing.
No outside labor or contractors.
Charter uses a lot of contractors for any work except cable stringing

Wow! Not out-sourcing the grunt work? I'm impressed.
Actually I am, I just was a little POed at Reid's statement.
But eveybody has to have papers.
The fact is we've fired contractors in the past for being undocumented.

I'd be thrilled to pay £9.00 for month for 20Mbps broadband, even if I'd
have to pay it in US dollars. Today's rate: 9.00 GBP = 13.7698 USD. I'll pay
twice that at $27.54!
